## Summary

ProtoMotions introduces a deployment stack that exports a trained humanoid policy as one ONNX graph and runs it in a small C++ loop with TensorRT. The same binary runs in MuJoCo and on a Unitree G1, with 1.3 ms per control step on the Metatron setup. The stack is released under Apache-2.0 in the ProtoMotions repository, though the authors note the C++ runtime is experimental and some examples will move a robot.

## Why it matters

The post explains how a trained humanoid policy is exported as one graph and run unchanged in simulation and on a Unitree G1, useful for teams closing the sim-to-robot gap.

## Post

Deploy the artifact, not the framework.

How we run ProtoMotions policies on robots: the whole pipeline exported as one graph, a small C++ loop with TensorRT, the same binary in MuJoCo and on the robot. 1.3 ms per step. https://x.com/i/article/2120178903918444544
